    obviously not going to fill GOOG is a riotous stock. They keep raising the vola on the OTMs as it bubbles higher each day-- heading toward a million dollars per share-- and then when it sells off a few pennies - the vola declines significantly is seems

    tried to add more MNX Feb 180p but the offer never came down to 6.50 - (my entry target). In any event my "feeling" is that NDX seeks out the 1750 level (i.e. mnx 175) - at which point I will triple my size on 180 or 185 MNX puts only thing that bothers me a little is the p/c ratio was >.55...

    Darn-- screwed up :eek: managing so many open positions today- I sold the damn CME 370 puts @ 6 for + .70 instead of 6.30 (bid now only 5.80 however). Saw my pricing error & tried to amend but was filled - think I would have gotten the 6.30 looking to re-enter Jan 370 puts on CME...
